Its that time of the year again

Here we are again, at the threshold of the new year. A little too hastily , we bade farewell to the old year. The cheers and tears it brought us would soon belong to history.

We all had our own crests and troughs, through the rush of its waves. ..

 I've been sad, this last year. I am usually a person, who worry about others, but this time around it was all about me. The rest of the world had begun to fade away. I forgot the birthdays of my nephews and niece. I lost interest in their little world. I lost interest in almost everything. Friends seemed distant, I stopped reaching out to them.

I had been feeling like a convict. I had already made peace with myself, I had accepted myself, but the world had not been that kind. My thoughts had been constricted, my words constrained.
I had been feeling worthless.

And then I had to face the world with 85 scars on my face alone (Yes, I counted). To my surprise, the world had been overwhelmingly kind to me.

Perhaps, I had been defeated this last year, but I learned from it too.

I hope this year we win back everything we've lost.

Time would just go on...It would find new meanings and purposes to all our lives...
I would find my words again, Then I would find myself again. I would love more fiercely. I would be thankful to all the laughter and tears. I would keep my promises.

I hope you all do too. Happy new year..
